| Required buttons for a 4-player control panel? |
| (1/3) > >> |

I've been searching the forums for a while and I can't seem to find the answer to this (but I know others must have asked this before me). What are the required buttons for a 4-player control panel (really, how many buttons for player 3 and 4)? I have seen many example 4 player control panels in the project announcements forum, and many of them have 6-7 buttons for the 3rd and 4th player, but I was pretty sure no 3 and 4 player games used that many (I thought it was either 3 or 4 buttons needed). Can anyone confirm this? This panel is not for me, I'm building it for a friend (I personally don't like the 4 player panels, too much going on, but he's convinced it's the way to go). I can only think of a handful of 4 player games that even exist, so I'm not sure if there are some games that will use all 6-7 buttons for player 3 and 4 that I'm missing, so I thought I better ask before I get too far into planning the layout for his control panel. |

why does the slickstick have 7 buttons for players 3 and 4? are there any games that would ever use those buttons? or does it do that just to be fancy? |
